I'm having a little problem with Thunar. It used to display all entries in alphabetical order, and just this morning it started displaying things in randomized order. I looked through the thunarrc file but couldn't find anything that looked like a setting for that.

Any ideas?

VL Std. 5.8 Live Beryl

AMD Sempron, nVidia GeForce 5200, 512 RAM

Thanks,Tom

Yeah, I tried that, but no dice. Also, I opened Thunar as root (not a good idea I know) and it shows the same randomized order, folders before files but not alphabetical. There's probably some global setting somehwere, but I can't find anything in the Xfce docs or on Google about it.

Can I see a screenshot and stuff? I think Thunar sorts by date or size now, and that causes the problem.

Actually ... I am in St. Louis. But since water is free, why would I offer to buy you a Bud? Anheuser-Busch only makes one good thing: jobs. I was thinking something more real, along the lines of Guinness.

hanumizzle,

Well, since you can't drink beer, howsabout a cheeseburger or a new motherboard?

exeterdad,

The difference between a Linux expert and a newbie is how much hair you've pulled out.

Thanks again guys.
